Mike the Asphalt Mariner was telling me the other day about the trick he likes to play on friends when he finds them anchored off an island after midnight, and it's obvious no one onboard is awake or paying attention.
What Mike likes to do is come alongside in his boat, raise their anchor, then quietly tow his unwitting friend to the location of his choosing. Obviously the farther away from the original position, the better.
So when the unfortunate "cap'n" comes to his senses he has absolutely no idea how he got there, which leaves him feeling a bit dumb and surprised ... because no matter how much experience he's got under his belt sometimes all those tiny islands and their inlets end up seeming all alike.
